The participants finally left the arena, the wounds on their bodies finally disappeared slowly due to the ability to regenerate the Troops Leadership contract with Cyrus.
Now the burns in the body of group 3 recovered as before, Mana and Stamina belonging to Nemesis also recovered, he said, there was only one death, the soldier who denied the Ugly Girl's decision and was later killed by Cyrus with blood magic.
As they walked away, Cyrus asked Eliza. “Before he was under whose leadership?” Cyrus asked Eliza while looking at Nemesis.
“Who!? Nemetic? He was Julius' subordinate from the kingdom of Black Fire.” Eliza replied while reading the bio-data book of the identity of the tournament participants.
“Oh, no wonder..he is from the black fire faction yes.”.
“True, King..”
the first wave of matches ended, the winners being groups 1, 2 and 1230.
The subsequent matches went very fierce and exciting, but none of them managed to attract the attention of Cyrus other than Nemesis.
Cyrus was interested in Nemesis because he was the only soldier who had a double element, while the other soldiers only had one element and it was common.
As time passed, the sun slowly began to set and the sky began to darken, Cyrus and Eliza were traveling back into the royal palace.
In the midst of his journey back to the palace, Cyrus and Eliza were greeted by his soldiers with a sight of shivering bodies trembling, for a full day the entire army still could not forget the terrible events that occurred within the group of 3.
Finally now the soldiers of the Allstar planet know, the greatness of the legendary blood magic, even making his former kingdom was willing to submit under the auspices of the demon king Cleo Charlotte, the owner of the 11th generation blood magic.
After this incident the whole army must have been more proud and respectful to Cyrus, as they had all seen with their own eyes, that they had a truly powerful King.
“Look at them.. They all shivered in fear when they saw you.” Whisper Eliza to Cyrus while putting on her sweet smile.
“I don't care, just think of this as a lesson to them that this world is cruel.” Cyrus answered quickly.
Cyrus gave them a lesson for his soldiers, that the weak will always be oppressed and the strong will be the victor, this is the world where the law of the jungle prevails.

The days have passed, from the 1232 groups that participated have now become 616 groups that continue to the next round.
Of course the group that managed to qualify for the next round is a group that is classified as strong, their strength is not only in the field of physical and magic, but also in the field of magic, but there are also some groups that rely on war strategies that are worth a thumbs up.
“Rajaku, why do you look excited today?” Eliza asked as she approached Cyrus who was preparing to go to the tournament arena.
“Really? Isn't it the same as always?”
“I know!! Must be Nemesis, right?” Asked Eliza in a slightly seductive style.
Cyrus did not answer Eliza's question and immediately rushed off to watch the match.
Today was the day the group of 1230 competed, making Cyrus very excited by what surprise else he would show him.
Moments later, Cyrus has arrived in the forbidden forest, where the Nemesis match takes place.
But it is unfortunate, the arrival of Cyrus a little late because the game has started and has been at the end of the game.
“Badish Girls, group 1230 against whom this time?” Cyrus asked the Ugly Girl who was leading the game.
“Hail Your Majesty.. Currently group 1230 against group 393.”
Cyrus had already guessed from the end of this match must have been the winner was the group of 1230, because the group they were fighting was already battered and the enemy defense was already very messy.
But strangely there was one enemy soldier who only kept silent in the rear row, he did nothing from the beginning of the match and from the beginning he was always protected by his colleagues.
It was clear in Cyrus' eyes that the soldier was casting a spell.
“Hm... Earth golem!? Or a sandstorm!? There seems to be a surprise waiting for you, Nemesis.” Cyrus muttered in a slow tone while guessing what happened next.
Cyrus guessed what the rearguard soldier would do, he guessed after seeing the Aura belonging to the soldier was a land element.
Shortly after Cyrus muttered, suddenly a very high sand wave was heading towards the group of 1230 fortress.
“Capit protect the castle with your body.” Shout Nemesis quickly while running backwards to where the fortress is located.
“Use any way to protect the fortress!! Quick!!” Nemesis's orders once again.
Sand waves are like waves in a stormy sea, a big and high wave that hits anything indiscriminately.
*Kresss... ssss... ssss.*Sounds of sand raining down on the bodies of the group of 1230 soldiers.
Dozens of members of the group of 1230 who were dragged into a mess due to the collision with the sand waves, they were all carried away by the sand currents because they tried to withstand the brunt of the sand waves.
“Mataku... Chairman.... is our fortress okay?”
“My eyes... can't see..”.
Frantic cries of some members of the group of 1230 who were being dragged by the sand waves.
Not only dragged by the current, but the sand accidentally entered the eye and made the group of 1230 can not see in a moment.
There are also some soldiers buried in sand with the fort, one of them Nemesis.
Nemesis with all his strength to withstand the brunt of the sand waves, he held his body to stay near the fort while holding the brunt of the sand waves so that the fort did not collapse due to the brunt of the sand waves.
“Chairman, how is this!? I can not hold it too long, I will also run out of Mana, if it takes too long to hold it.” Said one of his colleagues who was also buried in sand.
Nemesis and some of his fellows who were buried in sand at this time, they were all still able to speak and breathe well, as one of them cast air magic that was wind in form.
Seen in Cyrus's eyes at this time, like a small hill formed from sand but inside were some warriors, those within the hill were protected by air magic, and those within it were protected by air magic, the magic surrounded him while helping to withstand the heavy burden of sand so as not to befall his comrades.
“Calm yourself!! Hold your magic for as long as possible, I'll figure out a way for us to get out of here.” Nemesis replied to one of his comrades who was currently using air magic.
On the other hand outside the sand mountain, seen some soldiers of group 1230 are trying to get rid of the sand that hoards the fortress as well as the chairman and his colleagues.
“Quick help me!! Clean these damn sands..” Say one of the other 1230 group soldiers who survived the sand waves, he said while digging the sand from outside.
“Can't... Can't be removed. When I clean these sands, they are like walking themselves to their original place.”.
Cyrus smiled at the sight like this, they fought fervently and it was not like fighting in a tournament, but they fought mercilessly like fighting against their enemy.
“Badgirl, who is she!?” Point Cyrus towards the soldier who from the beginning only remained in the rear row, and he was the one who cast the magic of the sand waves.
“She is the leader of group 393, His Majesty. His name is Troy.”.
